CIGAR BOX GARDEN. Here's a differ-
ent version of the window box garden.
Paint a nature scene on the inside of
the lid.
ed. Take one potato out of the circle and
resume the game. Continue until only
one player is left.
GROWING SEASON RACE. Divide
den into two equal teams. Teams line
up relay fashion. On signal, second
player in each line dives between the
legs of the first player and stands up
with feet apart. Third boy in line goes
between the legs of the first two players
and stands up. And so on. until the team
is all "grown," First team finished wins.
VEGETABLE UPSET. All Cub Scouts
except one are seated in a circle. The
extra player stands in the center. Leader
assigns the name of a vegetable to each
two seated players who are on opposite
sides of the circle. (Two "carrots." two
"peas," two "radishes." etc.) When the
name , of a vegetable is called by the
leader, the two players with that name
must try to change places while the boy
in the center tries to take a vacant place.
If he succeeds, the boy whose place he
took goes into the center. When "Vege-
table Upset" is called, everybody
scrambles for a new place.
PACK ACTIVITY
The bike rodeo committee must ar-
rive early to set up the courses and
prepare to retest bicycles that failed
inspection at the mid-month clinic. You
may want to prohibit bikes that failed
from competing in the rodeo; however,
let their owners compete on borrowed
bikes.
Bike rodeo contests will be found in
Cub Scout Bicycle Safety Program
Leader's Guide and on pages 36-37 of
Cub Scout Activities.
Set up display areas for each Cub
Scout den's garden and nature crafts
projects. Webelos dens should have
separate areas for Forestry activity
badge exhibits.
Preopening—As families arrive, direct
the Cub Scouts to the rodeo registration
table. Note whether there are safe-in-
spected decals on their bikes and retest
those that don't have them. Then allow
boys to take practice runs on your rodeo
courses.
Opening—Use "Cub Scout Garden
Opening" (page CUB 5 AUG).
Bike rodeo—If your site is large enough
and you have sufficient timers and
officials, two or more events may be run
at the same time. Award five points to
the winning den in each event, three for
second, and one for third. The rodeo
champion will be the den with the most
points. You may also want to choose
individual den and pack champions on
the basis of high scores.
Recognitions—Rodeo chairman an-
nounces den and individual winners.
Award ribbons or small trophies and
have participation certificates for all
the boys.
Cubmaster awards badges of rank
and arrow points and transfers eligihie
boys to Webelos dens. Webelos den
leaders present activity badges and
Webelos badges. Finally, if you have
boys ready to graduate into Boy Scout
troops, select a ceremony from Staging
Den and Pack Ceremonies.
